Kathy Hochul became the 57th Governor of New York and the first woman to hold the office when Andrew Cuomo resigned in August 2021. She won a full term in November 2022 against Republican Lee Zeldin.
The New York State Police Aviation Unit (callsign "GrayRider") operates 21 aircraft across four bases (Albany, Saranac Lake, Newburgh, Rochester) serving multiple missions including executive transport, search and rescue, and law enforcement. The primary VIP transport aircraft include a 2013 Sikorsky S-76D helicopter (N761NY) and two Beechcraft Super King Air turboprops (N200NY, N201NY). Hochul also spent over $415,000 in campaign funds on chartered private jets for more than 30 personal flights since 2021, separate from state aircraft.
